The Designed Change Process

Conflict Resolution

Most conflict resolution begins with a strong focus on conflict. It's a little like holding a war for peace. The Designed Change Institute puts its focus on agreement, even to resolve conflict. The conflict resolution model we use (follow on through to references and texts or click on The Agreement Strategies) is designed to assure accurate communication and then moves on to separate the contentious material from the disagreements. The process is designed to eliminate the contentiousness and to preserve the disagreement as a resource.

Conflict and Creativity

It is conflict and not agreement which produces change in society and organizations. That much is obvious, however the conflict itself is composed of various elements, some productive of development and advancement and some destructive of communication and agreement. Through the use of the Designed Change Process you can distinguish between contentious adversary behavior and honest and valuable disagreement. CONFLICT PRODUCES CHANGE. Tame it and make it work for you.

Agreement

In its Agreement Strategies (The Agreement Strategies) the Designed Change Institute provides a remarkable set of methods which easily resolve conflict, preserve differences and disagreement, establish and cultivate agreement and show you how to hold the whole process in a dynamic way of acting as a group. Through the techniques of the Designed Change Process you will learn to manage agreement and disagreement with considerable ease. AGREEMENT PRODUCES UNITY, CONFLICT PRODUCES CHANGE. YOU NEED BOTH.
